The businesses need to organize and sue the states preemptively. Like, as in, right now, not after they start revoking business licenses etc.

They can use the last lockdown as the basis for their lawsuits, but the intent is to preempt the states from doing it again.

The problem is that states force businesses to follow the guidelines or shut them down. At least in blue states this time. I won’t be able to pick to shop/go out to an establishment that doesn’t believe in this nonsense because they’ll all be following “orders”.

I can resist all I want but unless I want to get arrested getting groceries from some karen calling the police or management a mask will be required. Will I wear it properly, no.

I’ll still go out but will have to fake mask. I won’t be sheltering in place or avoiding large groups unless it’s flu season like I do every year due to an elderly mother and a nephew on biologicals. That’s usually 6-8 weeks that we avoid large cards.

Some tears it’s mild and is only a couple.

The mask mandates are less of a problem. These mandates are a clever psy-op. They are turning the brainwashed against us and trying to force us into conflict. With masks you’re never faced with a hard ultimatum. You can give in and put a mask on for 20 minutes without permanently damaging your body. Ignore the signs on the door, walk in without a mask, and if a human being directly tells you to put one on politely comply. When you’re finished in that place take it off as you’re walking out the door. Even if you come back to the same place tomorrow walk in without a mask and do not put one on unless a staff person directly asks you to. As soon as everyone gets tired of telling us over and over again to put a mask on the whole charade ends.

The vaccine mandates are the hard one. Even being forced to wear a mask at work is tolerable, but being ordered to get one of those shots puts you in a hard place. If you politely comply you’re permanently damaging yourself, it’s only a question of how badly. If you refuse you’re taking a big risk that your employer will have the guts to fire you over it—most did. I would probably take the firing instead of the poison, but there’s a bad outcome either way.

Most businesses around here had employees stationed at the door and “roamers”

Luckily my GF’s employer doesn’t require vaxxes and if they did they already said they’d exempt anyone who wanted one. But out of roughly 150 in the company only 15 or so didn’t take it when it was offered from a mobile van.

Masks and social distancing were another thing. They put the crazies in charge of that and week by week it got dumber and dumber until finally if you were eating lunch 6 feet apart surrounded by plexiglass glass you could only take your mask off to take a bite then put it back on while you chewed. Same with water, you had to have the bottle up to your lips taking a drink or the mask had to be on.

You couldn’t turn around away from your three sided plexi glass cage to look behind you, you couldn’t talk to anyone in another plexi glass cage. Just pure power tripping.

Breaks and lunch were supposed to be a time to take your mask off and catch your breath but you now how a little power goes to someone’s head.

Those types of people will never stop if given the power, there’s only one solution for those types.

We went to the beach and the tourist shops/restaurants were insane. They’d make you purely before entering with a mask. After the first one we went to just normal places and when we’d walk in nobody would be wearing a mask and off it came.

One place we walked in I was fairly positive no mask would be required. Walked in, held up a mask and the owner said you can put that fucking thing away lmao.

I hadn’t thought about it before, but a lot of the ridiculous mandates came down to power tripping—especially at schools and workplaces where the policy makers had a clear population they were wielding power over. In those places people were living in the Stanford prison experiment.
